You've probably seen or heard of many different ways people use AI. You're probably also aware of AI image and art generators, which recreate images with an impressive amount of detail or create new material altogether. Today's post is an amalgam of these two different aspects of AI generators. The theme itself is very fascinating and might pique your interest.

So without further ado, let us introduce you to the work of eoford, which recently went viral on Reddit, racking up over 150k points and was featured on their homepage. What he did was simple (in some sense) but brilliant: he used AI to recreate various famous historical personalities and how'd they look today. Sounds like something you've already seen before? The brilliant part is that they were all made to look like today's politicians, which completely transforms the way we perceive these well-known figures.

Characters like Lincoln, Churchill, Napoleon, and others were "resurrected," as it were, for another life of being a politician, but this time, a modern one. The artist took time to recreate this in detail, and not only changed their haircuts and put them in suits but also put them against a background with a flag from the country they represent. It reminds us of the current portraits of politicians all too well.
